“Give Me 20 Minutes A Day and I’ll Show You How to Cure Your Sleep Apnea Through Scientifically-Proven Mouth and Throat Exercises”

From the desk of:Marc MacDonald, M.Sc.Ottawa, Canada

Dear Fellow Sleep Apnea Sufferer,

If you’re reading this website, you’ve probably tried every sleep apnea treatment under the sun…but your sleep apnea is as bad as ever.

You might have tried:

CPAP (but you couldn’t stand sleeping with that damn mask on your face)

Losing weight (but that didn’t last very long)

Dental appliances (uncomfortable and often not effective)

Surgery (sometimes effective, but often not permanent)

Despite trying all sorts of treatments, you still have sleep apnea – and it’s making your health worse by the week.

Isn’t There a Simple and Inexpensive Apnea Treatment That I Can Do at Home?

The fact is, there ARE sleep apnea treatments that don’t involve putting equipment on your face, going under the knife, or other drastic measures.

These treatments are proven to help cure (or significantly reduce) sleep apnea – but many doctors don’t recommend them

Why?

Simply put, many doctors don’t know about these treatments. They aren’t trained in medical school on the range of sleep apnea treatments available today. So they prescribe CPAP as a “knee-jerk” solution.

Now, don’t get me wrong – CPAP can be a highly effective treatment for sleep apnea. But there are so many drawbacks to CPAP that it’s just not worth it for many people.

I’m talking about side effects like:

Claustrophobia

Sinus infections

Dry mouth

Headaches

And that’s not to mention the biggest drawback of CPAP: you’re sleeping with a mask, tube, and other equipment attached to your body!

How natural is that? Not very, in my opinion – and the opinion of thousands of people who subscribe to my website, www.ApneaTreatmentGuide.com.

But here’s the good news: there ARE sleep apnea treatments that are completely natural; that don’t require expensive and uncomfortable equipment; that can be done in your own home; and that are backed by scientific studies to help cure sleep apnea.

“I can now say that I have been cured. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”

Dear Marc,

I have been planning to write to you for several weeks. I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea last December, and endured six weeks of CPAP treatment that provided no relief.

Then I purchased your piece about alternative treatments. I can now say that I have been cured. Thank you! Thank you! thank you!

I no longer have to endure the dreaded CPAP mask, and can now sleep as a normal human being.

I have regained my ability to sleep solely by using your recommended breathing exercises.

(I was going to try acupuncture next, but fortunately didn’t have to pay for that option.) Thanks again for bringing natural sleep back into my life! Sincerely,

MY STORY: FROM CPAP to WEIGHT LOSS to…THROAT EXERCISES?

That’s led me to discover many fascinating treatments that are proven to help cure sleep apnea. But by far the most promising treatment is something called “orofacial exercises”.

What are orofacial exercises? I’ll give you a detailed description in a moment. But first, allow me to explain why most people have sleep apnea in the first place.

WHY MOST PEOPLE HAVE SLEEP APNEA (AND SNORE)

The vast majority of people with sleep apnea suffer from what’s called “obstructive sleep apnea”, or OSA (a small percentage of people have “central sleep apnea”. Central sleep apnea is very different from OSA, and is caused by neurological factors. I’ll be talking only about obstructive sleep apnea, or OSA, here).

When obstructive sleep apnea occurs, the tissues in your upper throat relax and collapse together while you’re sleeping. This blocks the air’s passage temporarily.

Here’s how it happens while you’re asleep:

Travelling to the lungs, the air will make its journey via the nose, mouth and throat (all known as the ‘upper airway’)

Normally the rear of a person’s throat is soft and naturally falls inward when the person breathes.

Muscles in the throat will be working against the collapse, trying to maintain an open airway.

When the tissues at the rear of the throat collapse and become temporarily blocked off, apnea will happen and the person’s breathing is halted (“apnea” is a Greek word that means “cessation of breath”).

Apnea can also occur if a person has a tongue that is too thick, or a soft palate (the back part of the top of your throat) that is flabby.

There’s also a connection with snoring here. Flabby tissues in the mouth and throat not only collapse when you fall asleep. They also VIBRATE – which is what causes snoring.

So the key to conquering obstructive sleep apnea (and snoring) is to have STRONG muscles to keep your throat open while you sleep – muscles in your throat, tongue and soft palate.

Let’s move on to HOW you can strengthen those muscles.

HOW CAN EXERCISE CURE MY SLEEP APNEA AND SNORING?

As I said, the main reason people do exercises for obstructive sleep apnea is to build and strengthen the muscles located around their airway.

By doing these exercises, the airway is a lot less likely to completely collapse and become blocked off during sleep.

So what kinds of exercises strengthen the airway?

Here are the main categories of exercises, for each body area:

Tongue exercises: many people don’t realize that the tongue is a muscle. If the tongue becomes weak it can drop into the throat, causing an airway blockage. Tongue exercises assist in building the tongue’s tone and strength.

Jaw exercises: a tense jaw can contribute to obstructive sleep apnea. If the jaw is tight it can place pressure directly on the breathing passages. Jaw exercises will help to loosen and relax the jaw muscles.

Throat exercises: weakened throat muscles can collapse during sleep, causing the airway to become blocked. Throat exercises help to build, tone and strengthen the throat muscles. The exercises also open the throat up more to prevent it closing upon sleep.

Soft palate exercises: the soft palate muscles located around the base of the tongue relax during sleep. A weak soft palate can flap around and its tip can fall down onto the tongue. The soft palate exercises lift the soft palate up. The exercises also tone and strength the soft palate.

Please watch the video below in which Dr. Mike Nelson, Director of the SMCC Sleep Lab, describes the benefit of orofacial exercises for sleep apnea:

WHAT EXACTLY IS AN EXERCISE FOR SLEEP APNEA AND SNORING?

Obstructive sleep apnea exercises are all connected with the face, throat, mouth, nose and neck region of the body. The general concept is to strengthen, exercise and train certain muscles, making the airway easier to access during the night while sleeping.

But here’s the key: not just any exercise works in strengthening your airway; only certain exercises have been proven to strengthen the muscles that cure sleep apnea (and snoring). Your goal is to focus on THOSE exercises, so you don’t waste your time.

So what exercises am I talking about, exactly?

Here’s an example of an exercise that has been proven to significantly reduce sleep apnea: it’s called “soft palate blowing”.

A balloon can also be used for this exercise. Blow into a balloon with your mouth; after each outward breath, stop and remove the balloon; then breathe in deeply through the nose. Then blow into the balloon again, following the steps I just described.

Below is a video showing you exactly how to do the exercise (click on the arrow to start the video):

And here’s an illustration of the exercise:

What does this exercise achieve? Well, your soft palate and uvula (the dangly bit at the back of your throat) are elevated during the exhalation, which exercises and strengthens the muscles. Your pharynx will also expand and be enlarged.

PROOF THAT THESE SLEEP APNEA AND SNORING EXERCISES WORK

I know what you’re probably thinking at this point: “these exercises seem so simple. How do I know they actually work?”

It’s a little-known fact that since 2007, there have been a number of scientific studies carried out on orofacial exercises (also called “oropharyngeal exercises”), to determine if these exercises are truly effective.

These studies have been carried out in the sleep laboratories of universities, and speech pathology clinics around the world.

Conclusion: the study concluded that oropharyngeal exercises can significantly reduce obstructive sleep apnea severity and symptoms, and showed oropharyngeal exercises as a very promising treatment for those with moderate obstructive sleep apnea.

Objective: To determine whether there would be any noticeable impact via oropharyngeal exercises in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea.

Method used: 31 males aged between 40-50 years were subjected to a 2 month clinical trial. 15 of the males involved were administered a “pseudonym” drug and informed that the drug was newly created.

The drug, when taken over the course of 3 or more weeks, helped to strengthen the throat muscles and reduce any extra flab within the neck area.

The other 16 males were instructed to carry out oropharyngeal exercises for the course of the 2 month duration. The exercise routine was done daily, prior to bedtime.

Results: no difference was noted in the 15 men administered the “pseudonym” drug. The speech language pathologist leading the study said, “We obviously needed to use a fake product to set against the oropharyngeal exercises.

The 16 men completing the exercise routine, had to feel as though they were competing – as if they were taking part in a challenge. The 15 men taking the so called ‘drug’ thought they had the easy option. The other group did all the physical work” (i.e. doing the oropharyngeal exercises).

Conclusion: in his findings, the lead speech language pathologist says, “The results speak for themselves.

This study has been conducted to prove what a lot of speech language pathologists already had an inclination of, anyway – oropharyngeal exercises can in fact help, if not cure, obstructive sleep apnea.”

EXERCISES THAT WILL CURE YOUR SLEEP APNEA AND SNORING!

Here’s another great thing about these exercises: they also cure (or significantly reduce) snoring.

How?

Sleep apnea and snoring are often caused by the same thing: flabby throat tissue.

In the case of sleep apnea, the flabby throat tissue causes the airway to close when you’re asleep.

In the case of snoring, the flabby throat tissue vibrates while you’re asleep (especially if you breathe through your mouth while sleeping). It’s that vibration that makes you snore!

Many sleep apnea sufferers also have a snoring problem. So orofacial exercises can kill two birds with one stone!

BUT WILL IT CURE MY TYPE OF SLEEP APNEA?

As I mentioned, these exercises will not cure central sleep apnea (because central sleep apnea is a neurological disorder, which cannot be solved through exercises of the mouth, tongue, and throat).

But these exercises have been proven to work on a range of people with obstructive sleep apnea (and problems snoring).

Here’s how to tell if these exercises will work for you:

Your sleep apnea is caused by flabby throat tissue, or a large, thick tongue If you have flabby throat tissue or a large tongue, orofacial exercises will strengthen up the muscles in all the necessary areas – which means your airway will stop collapsing while you’re asleep.

You have a neck size that exceeds 16 inches and/or a body mass index (BMI) that exceeds 25.

THROW AWAY YOUR CPAP IN 20 MINUTES A DAY!

So I’ll bet your next question is: “How long do I have to spend doing these exercises?”

Here’s the great news:many of the exercises in my program take less than 1 minute to do the repetitions.

Now, you’ll need to do more than one exercise per day. In fact, when you’re just starting out I recommend that you do 8 different exercises (you don’t have to do all of the exercises in my program. There are 18 different exercises in total, and you can choose the ones you want. More on that below).

The bottom line? Expect to spend approximately 20 minutes per day doing the exercises – at first. Once you see improvement in your sleep apnea, you can choose to reduce the amount of time spent exercising.

Marc, The exercise have been very helpful. I adopted the three exercises to strengthen my palate and neck muscles. Been doing them for 10 days and already I can tell a difference, as I feel more and more refreshed each morning. Thanks for the tips! I am holding off on the purchase of a mechanical contraption to see how far I can take this. According to the sleep apnea report my involvement is mild so I hope the exercises will help me avoid CPAP or an oral appliance and the attendant costs as I am retired on a limited income! Thanks again for your help!

Good morning Marc, This morning I woke up with a clear head and you know what, I have to thank you for that!!!! So far I have done occasionally some of the 4 basic exercises, and they seem to work for me. Have a nice weekend! With regards from Finland, Jokke

Thanks Marc, I sure am finding the exercises valuable, as I have just recently been diagnosed with sleep apnoea your exercises seem to be improving the way I feel!

BUT WILL I HAVE TO DO THESE EXERCISES FOREVER?

Here’s what Steve Fanelli says about his exercise schedule:

I am doing the exercises (albiet inconsistently) and seeing results. Thank you for what you do!

It did not take long, after doing the exercises you recommend, to strengthen my throat muscles, jaw, palate and to see results.

I was diagnosed (less than a year ago) with severe sleep apnea.

However, after reading your materials educating me on what OSA is, what its causes are, and what can be done about it, I sleep much better at night (pun intended).

Anyway, I have been doing the exercises (albeit inconsistently) and seeing results.

Imagine what can be done if (should be “when”) I’m consistently practicing these exercises!

I’m looking forward to whatever else you share in the future re: OSA. Thank you for what you do. I’m very grateful.

Steve Fanelli

Here’s what Nick, from Lincolnshire, England, had to say about his exercise schedule:

My GP recommended a CPAP machine to begin with. I hated it and couldn’t sleep with it on. It felt very restricting.

I tried various other methods, even yoga! Then a friend mentioned they’d heard about a study regarding oropharyngeal exercises.

Desperate to be rid of the CPAP machine I went via my GP to a speech language pathologist and enquired about the exercises.

I started a routine of 8 exercises. I was instructed to do these 4 times daily, and in the initial week I noticed a difference.

I continued with them each day. Then I cut them down to twice daily. Now I do the routine just once a day.

Personally I wouldn’t stop them completely for fear of my obstructive sleep apnea returning to the same level that it was prior to the exercises.

I do still have the odd bad night and when that happens I simply up the routine for the following few days.

NickLincolnshire, England

So as you can see, how long you continue to do the exercises will depend on how quickly your orofacial exercises are strengthened and your personal preferences.

DO I HAVE TO DO ALL THE EXERCISES, OR CAN I CHOOSE THE ONES I LIKE?

The great thing about the Sleep Apnea Exercises Program is its flexibility.

In the program you’ll be given a range of exercises that you can mix and match based on your preferences. Now, the ones you select will have to be a balanced assortment – because it’s vital that you’re working all the relevant muscles (tongue, throat, neck, etc).

But with the comprehensive range of exercises I’ve put together in my program, you’ll have a good variety of choices.

WHAT RESULTS HAVE OTHER PEOPLE HAD?

Here are some of the things that people have said about the results of oropharyngeal exercises:

“I am sure that if you follow the exercises religiously and follow the other suggestions in the program your condition (or that of your loved one) will improve”

When I first heard of this project, I was truly elated.

As a working mother with two children 14 years apart, it was difficult to cope with sleep apnea since I had to be vigilant at night – when they are most at risk and go to work the following day.

Needless to say all three of us lacked the energy; my eldest daughter had difficulty in concentrating in school while lack of sleep made it almost impossible for me to keep my temper in check.

Therapy is costly in terms of time, energy and money; which brings me back to why I am glad this e-book is off the ground and in your hands.

The exercises are similar to those my children were taught with a twist – they are better because there are inputs from not just one speech pathologist but many consultants.

In effect, you are multiplying the benefits.

My youngest daughter who has Down’s syndrome responded very well to the new exercises I found in the book.

I’ve had a week to try out the exercises and she has been sleeping more quietly these last two nights – and I’ve been waking up chirpier.

She’s also lost weight lately and I’m sure that this factor counts a lot.

I am sure that if you follow the exercises religiously and follow the other suggestions in the e-book your own condition (or that of your loved one) will improve.

Be patient as individual conditions vary and so does response to therapy.

“My snoring has all but stopped now and I’m not gasping for breath as I was, my wife and I now share the same bed once again”

“My obstructive sleep apnea was destroying my life and my marriage. My wife couldn’t sleep and we ended up in separate bedrooms.

The snoring was an issue true enough-but she couldn’t sleep next to me out of fear.

She honestly thought I was going to pass away in my sleep and hated the CPAP machine as much as I did.

My GP suggested seeing a speech language pathologist. Well, I have to admit I had my reservations but I’m so glad I went. I would never stop my oropharyngeal exercises.

I started doing them 4 times daily and now do them twice daily. I do a series of 8 exercises.

My snoring has all but stopped now and I’m not gasping for breath as I was, my wife and I now share the same bed once again.

The CPAP machine has become redundant and now lives in the back of our wardrobe!

My advice to anyone, young or old, no matter how long you’ve been a sufferer for, go along to your GP and enquire about seeing a speech language pathologist.

The oropharyngeal exercises are such a natural ‘treatment’ compared to the CPAP mask, they are well worth the effort.

My apnea has been reduced by approximately 70-80% since completing the exercises regularly.”
